It is advantage Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) as they host bottom-ranked Gujarat Titans (GT) in the first of the last two home matches at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium here. A win on Thursday would assure SRH of a Playoff berth. 

The IPL-17 league phase ends this Sunday. Being well led by Pat Cummins, SRH play Punjab Kings in a 3.30 pm match in their last league tie on Sunday. With seven wins and five losses, SRH have 14 points, but the spectacular 10-wicket win in 9.4 overs over Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) boosted their net run-rate tremendously. Now, they need to remain calm and clinical in the remaining two matches to sign off their league phase in style.
